Photovoltaic panels
Increase your energy autonomy by installing photovoltaic panels. Produce your own renewable electricity and reduce your energy bills.

Produce and consume energy more efficiently
Since the sun can produce energy, make the most of it! Install photovoltaic panels on your roof and use thesun's energy to power equipment such as your heat pump, storage battery or electric vehicle charging station, tooptimize your self-consumption.
Investing in renewable energies is a double win: for theenvironment and for your wallet.

Become a player in the energy transition
By installing photovoltaic panels, you're helping to produce renewable electricity with lowCO2 emissions. When you call on our specialists for your solar installation, you also limit your carbon footprint, since SEIC favors European panels for its projects.
Enhance the value of your property
It's no secret! By opting for photovoltaic panels, you can increase the value of your property on the real estate market. This will make your property more attractive for resale. Indeed, more and more potential buyers are sensitive to environmental and energy criteria when buying a property.
Reduce your electricity bill
Thanks to your solar power system, you'll enjoy greater energy autonomy and, as a result, a degree of independence from rising electricity prices. This reduces your monthly electricity bill.
You'll also save money thanks to various subsidies and tax deductions. For further information, visit the website of Pronovo SA, the accredited certification body for guarantees of origin and the promotion of renewable energies.
Finally, the surplus energy produced by your system is sold to your electricity supplier, who will feed it back into the grid. Buy-back conditions depend essentially on the power of the installation and the policy of each distribution network operator.

An expert in sustainable energies for almost 125 years, SEIC can help you with your energy transition projects.
From the clarification of your needs through to implementation and administrative procedures, you benefit from a single, experienced contact with the necessary technical skills.
Solutions to complement your photovoltaic system
-
Monitoring & surveillance
Visualize, manage and analyze your electricity production and consumption.
-
Optimizing energy consumption
- Increase your self-consumption to reduce your energy bill from your electricity supplier.
- Maximize the use of the electricity you generate on your roof to reduce your consumption of energy purchased from your distributor.
- Automatically control your equipment (heat pump, boiler, etc.) so that they consume at the right time.
-
Storage battery
Adding a battery system to your solar array enables you to increase your level of self-consumption by storing photovoltaic electricity for later consumption. So you can continue to use your solar energy even during the night!
-
Stand-alone system with photovoltaic panels
In the event of a blackout or power shortage, your solar system continues to operate, recharging a battery system so that a power supply is always available in the building.
-
RCP or self-consumption communities
Are you generating electricity with a photovoltaic system? Create your solar cluster or self-consumption community and share your energy with your tenants and neighbors.

FAQ Photovoltaic panels
Investments designed to save energy and protect the environment are, in principle, fully tax-deductible, regardless of where you live. A calculator provided by the canton of Vaud will enable you to quickly make an initial estimate of the tax impact of your installation project.
Installations with a capacity of 2 kWp to 99.9 kWp are eligible for the Petite Rétribution Unique (PRU). The Grande Rétribution Unique (GRU) applies to installations from 100 kWp to 50 MWp. These federal subsidies should amount to around 30% of the investment.
Estimate your federal subsidies with the Pronovo SA calculator.
Like Gland and Prangins, a number of communes have set up programs to promote renewable energies and the rational use of energy. These programs provide financial assistance for specific actions, such as the promotion of photovoltaic solar installations.
Please contact your commune for details of the subsidy program available.

SEIC's technicians have a thorough knowledge of the localities in which they operate, which is important for adapting the installation to suit exposure, weather conditions and other climatic phenomena. A preliminary study enables us to assess your consumption and define the location and type of photovoltaic installation best suited to your needs. A precise costing enables you to estimate your return on investment.

The difference between the two lies in the purpose of the conversion process: photovoltaic panels capture solar energy and convert it into electrical current, while thermal solar panels convert solar radiation into heat. The latter is mainly used to heat domestic hot water.
